TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Final theatrical movie of Alfred Lynch (Edward).

Theatrical movie debuts of Chris Cleary Miles, Nathan Yapp, and Jake Owen. They all played Jimmy/James at different ages, and this role remains their only acting movie work.

Final film of Doris Hare.

Several reviews claimed that this film is set in Wales, and a Welsh town was the chief location for the movie, but the setting is, in fact, never specified and the accents of the actors in the film cover a wide area across Britain. Although the American William Hurt was praised for learning a Welsh accent, he actually sounds more like an Englishman from the West Country. It is noticeable that all the road signs seen in the film are only in English, whereas road signs in Wales are always in both English and Welsh.

Popular Dialogues

"[Remembering his mother's death] Graham: Dad wasn't making much sense. His hands were like injured birds looking for a safe place to roost."

"Debbie: If he gets ya practicing knots, just remember, untying them again's the hard part."
